Milwaukee has 35 NA meetings too, and most people end up using both.

Older adults, plus young adults from 18 to 25 and adults from 26 to 64. Ask how the groups are arranged in Milwaukee, because a wide age range often still means one room.

It happens to most people at some point, and it says nothing about whether this will work. The useful question after a recurrence is what was missing, and the answer is often medication or aftercare. Ask what they do differently for somebody who has been through a program before.
